Air enters the nasal cavity of the respiratory system through the (1)_________________. The
nasal cavity is divided by the midline (2)_______________________. The nasal cavity mucosa
has several functions. Its major functions are to (3)__________________,
(4)______________, and (5)___________________ the incoming air. Mucous membrane-lined
cavities called paranasal sinuses are found in several bones surrounding the nasal cavities. They
make the skull less heavy and probably act as resonance chambers for (6)_________________.
The passageway common to the digestive and respiratory systems are the (7)________________,
is often referred to as the throat; it connects the nasal cavity with the (8)__________________
below. Clusters of lymphatic tissue, (9)___________________, are part of the defensive system
of the body. Reinforcement of the trachea with (10)____________________ rings prevents its
collapse during (11)______________________ changes that occur during breathing. The fact
that the rings are incomplete posteriorly allows a food bolus to bulge (12) _______________
during its transport to the stomach. The larynx or voice box is built from many cartilages, but the
largest is the (13)__________________ cartilage. Within the larynx are the

5. Many changes occur within the lungs as the diaphragm (and external intercostals muscles)
contract and then relax. These changes lead to the flow of air into and out of the lungs. The
activity of the diaphragm is in the left column while various changes in condition are listed in the
right column. Complete the table by placing a check (√) in the appropriate column that would
correctly identify the change that would occur.
